The nearest point of this orbit (perilune) lies at a distance of about.    From Wordnik.com.  [rediff.com] Reference

In this Lunar Orbit of Injection, the satellite's closest point from the moon (perilune) is 500 km and the farthest point (apolune) is about 7,500 km.    From Wordnik.com.  [Top Stories - Google News] Reference

While the exact orbit determination will take a couple of hours, the ISRO release gave the nominal orbit parameters as 504 km perilune (the nearest point from the Moon's surface) and 7502 km apolune (the farthest point).    From Wordnik.com.  [The Hindu - Front Page] Reference

He further said that the next deboost manoeuvre that will take the spacecraft from the present Lunar Orbit of Insertion (LOI) to the first lower orbit LO-1, which will have a perilune of 125 km, will be carried out after two and a half revolutions in the present orbit.    From Wordnik.com.  [The Hindu - Front Page] Reference
